Kyle Stowers has seven home runs in just 16 Grapefruit League games, but he still might not make the team. Still, is the 26-year-old’s strong spring enough to cement his spot in the team’s future plans?
Paul Mancano and Jon Meoli discuss how the Orioles’ logjam in the outfield – between Stowers, Colton Cowser, Heston Kjerstad, Austin Hays, Cedric Mullins and more – could solve itself in the next year or two (1:15). Then they look at the remaining roster battles as Opening Day approaches (22:08).

Danielle Allentuck joins Paul Mancano from Sarasota to discuss Holliday’s remarkable spring (3:08) and the roster battle that continues to rage in the O’s outfield (13:35).

We’re three weeks into spring training, and the Orioles’ looming outfield decision haven’t gotten any easier. Kyle Stowers, Colton Cowser and Heston Kjerstad have all made strong cases for inclusion on Baltimore’s opening day roster. Is there room for more than one of this trio?
Andy Kostka joins Paul Mancano from Sarasota, Florida, to discuss the outfield competition that seemingly won’t end, Jackson Holliday’s strong start to Grapefruit League action and Julio Teheran’s head-turning outings.
